Silicon carbide, SiC, is commonly known as carborundum. This hard substance, which is used commercially as an abrasive, is made

by heating SiO2 and C to high temperatures.
SiO2(s) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g)
How many grams of SiC form when 3.00 g of SiO2 and 4.50 g of C are allowed to react?

Mass of SiC = 2 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

SiO₂(s) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g)

3.00 g of SiO₂

4.50 g of C

Required

mass of SiC

Solution

mol SiO₂ (MW=60,08 g/mol) :

= 3 g : 60.08 g/mol

= 0.0499

mol C(Ar = 12 g/mol) :

= 4.5 g : 12 g/mol

= 0.375

mol : coefficient of reactants =

SiO₂ : 0.0499/1 = 0.0499

C : 0.375/3 = 0.125

SiO₂ as a limiting reactant(smaller ratio)

Mol SiC based on mol SiO₂ = 0.0499

Mass SiC :

= mol x MW

= 0.0499 x 40,11 g/mol

= 2 g

Umnica [9.8K]
The reaction between HCl and NaHCO3 will be;
HCl + NaHCO3 = NaCl + CO2 + H2O
The relative formula mass of NaHCO3 is 84 g/mol
Moles of NaHCO3 in 2 g will be; 2/84 =0.0238 moles
The mole ratio of HCl and NaHCO3 is 1;1
Thus, the number of moles of HCl is 0.0238 moles
 The volume of HCl will be;
  = 0.0238 moles/0.2 
  = 0.119 liters or 119 cm³

the following data were collected. time, s [A], M 0 1.00 1 0.430 2 0.270 3 0.200 4 0.160 What is the order of the reaction and t
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

I'll give you the graphs that you need to look at:1st order: the graph you need to make is ln[A] vs t. If you get a straight line, the reaction is 1st order and the slope will equal to the rate constant K.2nd order: the graph you need to make is 1/ln[A] vs t. If this graph shows a straight line, the reaction is 2nd order and the slope will equal the rate constant K.

Put the steps of the scientific method into the correct order.
riadik2000 [5.3K]
<span>The scientific method is a systematic way of questioning about the world around us and answering questions. The number of steps varies from one description to another, mainly when data and analysis are separated into separate step, but this is a fairly standard list of 6 scientific method steps, which you are expected to know for any science class:

1. Form a Hypothesis. This is a sort of educated guess about what you expect. 
2. Design an Experiment to test your hypothesis. An experiment has an independent and dependent variable. You change or control the independent variable and record the effect it has on the dependent variable.
3. Conduct Experiment
4. Record data and observations and analyze what the data means. Often, you'll prepare a table or graph of the data.
5. Form a Conclusion. Conclude whether to accept or reject your hypothesis. Communicate your results.</span>
